compatible if a document also add \usepackage{verbatim} at the
beginning.

Declare \modindex, \bimodindex, \exmodindex, and \stmodindex
obsolete.  These still work just fine, but \declaremodule should be
used instead.  The obsolete macros will print a warning on standard
out.

ALIGN=CENTER for the table, to get a slightly better affect in the
text (the table is full-width, so this doesn't change the appearance
when browsing the HTML).
 1999-03-03 16:21:34 +00:00

 1999-02-19 23:04:59 +00:00
Fred Drake df5d50d889 Specify the sizes of H? relative to the normal font size as 
percentages; using "large", "x-large" makes them too big for
some troublemakers.  ;-)

(Not specifying them at all causes some browsers to make them the same
size as normal text.  ;-(  )
 1999-02-19 23:03:04 +00:00

Fred Drake 4d33e4e1a8 HTMLBASE: New variable. Make it easier to check an "installed" copy 
of the HTML documents using the webcheck target.

When there's not a usable .aux file, use mkdvi.sh --aux instead of

library reference.
 1999-02-15 19:29:08 +00:00

Fred Drake 2d2b6a0074 Markup nits. 1999-02-12 20:40:49 +00:00
Fred Drake 99cd5735f0 Minor markup nits. 1999-02-12 20:40:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 7b84972450 Use the shorter form of Christopher Petrilli's email address. 1999-02-12 20:09:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 28bc711f5f Added section for MimeWriter, contributed by Christopher Petrilli 
<petrilli@amber.org>.

This spells the end of another whole section in the undoc chapter!
 1999-02-12 19:26:09 +00:00
Fred Drake f7bf3b2b06 Added entry for MimeWriter module. 1999-02-12 19:24:02 +00:00
Fred Drake 15799edd34 Make table headers the same color as the navigation bars so they stand 
out a little better.

Make sure the boxes for the last column of tables always get drawn;
these are often left empty of content when used as a "Notes" column.
They look a little better this way.
 1999-02-12 19:23:17 +00:00
Fred Drake 7a9ed71e95 Moved the navigation-bar background color to a variable. 1999-02-12 19:00:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 26b698fa4d Document <complex #>.conjugate(). 1999-02-12 18:27:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 15988fdbbb Documented __complex__(), made sure all the discipline names hit the 
index.
 1999-02-12 18:14:57 +00:00
Fred Drake 2e1ee3eb19 Fix up some routines to coordinate the "indexsubitem" stuff so that 
the subitem text is updated correctly when each module section is
processed.

Print [<modulename>] when we start on \declaremodule so we can more
easily track progress during the library reference.
 1999-02-10 21:17:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 72e5a901c2 Remove unnecessary <p> from top navigation bar. 1999-02-10 17:35:41 +00:00
Fred Drake ec5c0b41ae Revert previous change; there's a better way to do it. 1999-02-10 17:08:00 +00:00
Fred Drake 95474f9696 Change the navigation bar to be a little prettier and more consistent 
with the python.org style.
 1999-02-09 18:45:50 +00:00
Fred Drake 446ab75fcf New blank icon to match the others in size & color, with without any 
symbol on it.
 1999-02-09 18:27:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 2d1f81ea22 do_cmd_maketitle(): Small nit in creating the "title page". 1999-02-09 16:03:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 1a4c5392b5 Back out some of the fine tuning; something in all that interacted 
badly in practice and botched the whole thing.  Wasn't obvious when
looking at the local effects (which worked), but completely broke
entire pages.  ;-(
 1999-02-09 15:31:52 +00:00
Guido van Rossum ce67f06491 Update documentation to reflect changes to Queue.py by Tim Peters. 1999-02-08 18:43:13 +00:00
Fred Drake dfb4e24431 Respond to suggestion from "Albert" <hat@se-46.wpa.wtb.tue.nl> to add 
document titles to the list of files.

Also added total page count and a note that comments should be
directed to python-docs@python.org.
 1999-02-05 20:50:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 2ff880e2cf More magic to tighten up a little of the formatting. 1999-02-05 18:31:29 +00:00
Fred Drake f9918f25b1 Minor nit to prevent dropping a space in the HTML generation. 1999-02-05 18:30:49 +00:00
Fred Drake d673d481f5 Document sameopenfile(), samestat(). 1999-02-03 22:31:30 +00:00
Fred Drake 0256c1f453 Document splitdrive(). 
For all split*(), these split path *into* pairs, not split path *in*
pairs.  "Into" can be used for transformations, "in" is for
containment.
 1999-02-03 19:24:44 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 0c9608cf1b Portability fix for [f]statvfs() return tuple: no longer return the 
f_fsid field, since it's not a scalar on all systems supporting this
call (in particular, it's a tuple of two longs on AIX).  Since it's
not particularly useful, just nuke it.  Adapted the doc strings too.
 1999-02-03 16:32:37 +00:00
Fred Drake dbd37dfcff Remove three items. 1999-02-02 19:03:09 +00:00

Fred Drake dda199b261 Moved \versionadded to end of description sections. 1999-02-02 19:01:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 12ba7868e4 Moved posixpath to os.path. 1999-02-02 19:00:37 +00:00
Fred Drake 560bcae0f0 Added posixpath, winsound. 1999-02-02 18:59:58 +00:00
Fred Drake a9b9bf96fe Change this to be os.path. 
Use consistent parameter naming with the os documentation (paths
always named "path" or "path1", "path2"...).
 1999-02-02 18:58:33 +00:00
Fred Drake bb79438d26 This seems to fix a problem with targeting from the indexes. 1999-02-02 18:57:12 +00:00
Fred Drake 2116d983bf Make \versionadded and \versionchanged less prominant -- neither bold 
nor a separate paragraph.
 1999-02-02 18:02:48 +00:00
Fred Drake d0bceeeb59 Move \versionadded macros to end of descriptions. 1999-02-02 18:00:40 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 09da65ef2f Patch by Sjoerd Mullender to placate /F: 
Clarified (hopefully :-) the documentation of elements and attributes
variables.
 1999-02-02 17:55:12 +00:00
Fred Drake dbd72a4e4f Added module synopsis. 1999-02-01 21:27:59 +00:00
Fred Drake 68a8c69499 Take out just about everything and refer the reader to the os module. 1999-02-01 20:23:02 +00:00
Fred Drake b23ee1d899 Make the text generic, and call it os.path instead of posixpath. 1999-02-01 20:20:39 +00:00
Fred Drake 59d8b73cef Remove all references to posixpath; only refer to os.path. 
Formalize the xstat() documentation.
 1999-02-01 20:19:38 +00:00
Fred Drake 98be47e737 OSError description: "as the by the" --> "as the" 1999-02-01 16:17:40 +00:00
Fred Drake 7281b3b779 Updated comments on version of XML package needed. 1999-01-29 22:35:23 +00:00
Fred Drake 28e66d1c5e Added the info tarball to the tarballs target. Added the README to 
the info tarball.
 1999-01-29 22:23:25 +00:00
Fred Drake b2c59ab367 A README file for the info tarball. 1999-01-29 22:22:03 +00:00

Fred Drake 9b0dc53d89 Define %descriptor.class, since it's used. 1999-01-29 21:38:14 +00:00
Fred Drake 279ca75a5b Be a little smarter on some attribute values, making an assumption about 
the DTD.
 1999-01-29 21:35:50 +00:00
Fred Drake 3a7ff998ac fixup_descriptors(): Change the way we look for descriptor nodes; 
this takes 5 minutes off the conversion of the whole tree by
	reducing the number of tree-traversals from 14 to 1.
 1999-01-29 21:31:12 +00:00
Fred Drake 666e60095b Added the Doc/sgml/ directory to the tarball. 1999-01-29 21:22:55 +00:00
Fred Drake cb65781d93 Rewrite code that converts the little descriptor environments to build 
the right <signature>s and <description>.  This seems to work a lot
better now!
 1999-01-29 20:55:07 +00:00
Fred Drake 75930b31e2 Added table entries for \funcline and \funclineni. 1999-01-29 20:09:27 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 1804dc3c07 Document abspath() (implementation is forthcoming). 1999-01-29 18:05:05 +00:00
Fred Drake f339632da0 Define a general entity "&version;" that can be used as the current major 
version of the Python interpreter.  This is \version in the LaTeX format
of the documentation.
 1999-01-29 16:42:37 +00:00
Fred Drake fdfd50f815 Convert <version> to &version;. 1999-01-29 16:29:25 +00:00
Fred Drake 7859f17608 A few scribbles toward the DTD. 1999-01-29 16:21:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 6bcc53c109 Standard ISO entities. 1999-01-29 16:20:24 +00:00
Fred Drake 2eb07f0945 The OASIS Exchange table model public text. 1999-01-29 15:57:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 7dab6affba Update the docstring. 
Lots of changes to get the paragraph marking to work, and not go into
an infinite recursion.

Start to rationalize markup of method signatures; not complete.

find_all_elements():  similar to getElementsByTagName(), but operates
	on the not-quite-legal fragments we deal with here.
	Simplifies several individual transforms.

fixup_sectionauthors():  Convert \sectionauthor items to <author> just
	after the <section>'s <title>.
 1999-01-28 23:59:58 +00:00
Fred Drake 3f3b09657f Added table entries for \methodline, \methodlineni. 1999-01-28 23:49:37 +00:00
Fred Drake ae3e574170 "numberic" --> "numeric", two places 1999-01-28 23:21:49 +00:00
Fred Drake 1453a8caf9 Constructor arguments for classes should be called <args>. 1999-01-28 23:10:48 +00:00
Fred Drake 703b70e260 Added \modulesynopsis. 1999-01-28 19:30:49 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 6b86a42c7f Document -OO; "unsafe" optimization that removes docstrings. 
Marc-Andre Lemburg.
 1999-01-28 15:07:47 +00:00
Fred Drake ffd511248e Add the info "dir" fragment to the info tarball. 1999-01-27 18:50:21 +00:00
Fred Drake 8d7919d754 Fragment of an info "dir" file for the Python documentation. 1999-01-27 18:49:44 +00:00
Fred Drake ffc4811a40 Simplify slightly. 1999-01-27 18:40:36 +00:00
Fred Drake c5efde8522 Don't build info for the Macintosh module reference by default; it 
doesn't do well.
 1999-01-27 18:30:16 +00:00
Fred Drake aa2aea0e79 \py@linkToName: New macro to consolidate support for most internal 
hyperlinking in the PDF version.  This also allows many of the
	macros that do this stuff to be a good bit more readable.
	Takes the target name and link content as parameters.

Use \py@linkToName for all internal links.
 1999-01-27 17:37:36 +00:00
Fred Drake 580f4ab5dc Added the files for the repr and ConfigParser modules. 1999-01-27 17:21:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 9d814c6805 Document the repr module. This removes the entire "Code objects and 
files, debugger etc." section from "Undocumented Modules"!
 1999-01-27 17:20:33 +00:00
Fred Drake da452bf6a7 Don't say that the module defines the "following functions" and then 
only describe one; say "following function" instead!

Merge the two one-sentence paragraphs into a single paragraph, so it
doesn't look too stupid.
 1999-01-27 15:48:23 +00:00
Fred Drake ebe2a12de8 Incorporate changes for patched version of ConfigParser. 1999-01-26 21:49:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 9f253dc3ff \py@modindex: Format the index entry for the module index more like 
that used in the "normal" index.  No visual difference, but
	more easily processed by helper scripts.
 1999-01-26 19:23:09 +00:00
Fred Drake bc866ce2e3 Documentation for the ConfigParser module, by Christopher G. Petrilli 
(petrilli@amber.org).
 1999-01-26 15:47:59 +00:00
Guido van Rossum 9700e9becc Document the default for tabsize in expandtabs(). 1999-01-25 22:31:53 +00:00
Fred Drake a49a4eabbf Add "term" to AUTOCLOSE. 1999-01-22 22:48:24 +00:00
Guido van Rossum d1dbf633ed Header for PyObject_DelItem() mentioned non-existing 3rd argument. 1999-01-22 20:10:49 +00:00
Fred Drake 43278f01dc convert(): Added parameter "autoclose", which should be a sequence of 
general identifiers for which closing tags will be omitted
	when SGML is generated.  This can be used to tell the markup
	generator to drop stuff like </para>.  Note that it needs to
	be possible for the closing tag to *always* be omitted for it
	to be included in "autoclose".

main():  Added command-line option "-a" / "--autoclose" to set the
	list of general identifiers passed to the convert() function
	as the "autoclose" parameter.  The list may only be specified
	once (not additive) and GIs should be comma-separated.  The
	default list includes only "para".
 1999-01-20 20:35:05 +00:00
Fred Drake 0a5b8de5e2 Modified the "sgml" and "xml" targets to stop if the sub-makes fail in 
any subdirectory; don't continue with remaining subdirs.

Added "api", "ext", "lib", "mac", "ref", and "tut" targets to only do
submakes in those directories.  This is just a lot easier to use than
to cd into the subdir and use make.rules directly.
 1999-01-20 17:26:56 +00:00
Fred Drake 19a0dba342 Add caveat on partial dependence on the "cl" module, only available on 
IRIX systems.
 1999-01-20 16:26:09 +00:00
Fred Drake 9ea3e36419 Move the jpeg module to the SGI section; it is dependent on the "cl" 
module available on IRIX.
 1999-01-20 15:55:20 +00:00
Fred Drake 4259f0db04 create_module_info(): If there's a \moduleauthor, move it to an 
<author> inside the <moduleinfo> element.

Fix problems with paragraph identification.
 1999-01-19 23:09:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 36dfe58694 isnmtoken(), istoken(): Fix to ensure the regex has to match the 
entire attribute value.

Add ability to save list of "empty" elements to a file -- enabled by
constant in the code.
 1999-01-19 23:03:04 +00:00
Fred Drake 2664db9f76 handle_labels(): Fix problem for document fragments containing more 
than one "root" that prevented all the <label id=...> items
	from being promoted to id attributes on the enclosing chapter/
	section/... properly.
 1999-01-19 21:46:48 +00:00
Fred Drake a7998f650a Revised comments on null bytes in pattern string.

 1999-01-19 20:00:08 +00:00
Fred Drake 6ffa445832 Fix second description of handling 2-digit years (last item in 
introductory text).
 1999-01-19 19:35:18 +00:00
Fred Drake d6ced7d199 convert(): Change the element name remapping to convert <refmodule> 
to <module link>.
 1999-01-19 17:11:23 +00:00
Fred Drake f82e4ab617 format_attrs(): Attempt a bit more minimization for SGML output. 1999-01-19 17:10:31 +00:00
Fred Drake 9bbdce5945 add_module_idx(), add_idx_hook(): 
Change the message printed before running buildindex.py;
	"Doing the index..." wasn't clear and could be misinterpreted
	with an inappropriate mindset.  ;-)
 1999-01-19 16:30:10 +00:00
Fred Drake 7eca8e5017 Fix typo spotted by Jeff MacDonald <jam@ans.net>. 1999-01-18 15:46:02 +00:00
